F1E1 has reset steps and no stated cause on commercial-style pages, and an oven control note on the range page.
Model compatibility: KitchenAid reuses codes across series and model years, so F1E1 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Reset steps without a cause on commercial-style pages; the range page names the oven control or its wiring.
There is not much written about F1E1. Commercial-style range pages offer reset steps and no cause. The standard range page adds one hint: the oven control, or the wiring that serves it.
Things to try, in order
Rotate the temperature knob to OFF; per KitchenAid, this cancels the error and use of the range can resume.
If F1E1 reappears, cut power to the range for five minutes. Pull the plug when the range has one, or use the breaker if it does not, and then restore power.
A shorter published routine: breaker off for one minute, on again, start the cycle, and watch the display for a minute.
Make sure the range behaves normally.
The oven control explained
Only general background here. The oven control is the set of electronics behind the cooking functions. A code that names it means the control might be flagging a problem in itself or in its connections.
Handing it to a technician
Commercial-style pages end after the resets. If the code returns after both, a technician is the right person, since no cleaning, adjusting or part swapping is described.
Two questions
What do I do first? The commercial-style page lists the knob step ahead of the power resets.
Does anything name the failed part? Only the standard range page offers a suspect; the commercial-style pages name none.
